Had a great time at the Stampede, my first in almost 20 years, with the family. Three big gear grinders though:

1. The major degradation in corn dog quality.

2. The stall in the BMO centre selling AI art.

3. Every food vendor prompting me for a tip. You handed me a hot dog, what is the tip for?

I have not heard an acceptable reason why England, Scotland, Wales and N. Ireland are allowed separate soccer teams for FIFA and UEFA. At the Olympics and United Nations it is Great Britain.

When you have two hot dogs at once the tips matter.

Yeah, the fall of descent corn dogs at the Stampede blows. It's really the only food I look for when I go.

Got a City of Calgary Parking ticket. When I arrived at the Telus Convention Center I went into the Parkade at 2:01 PM. I parked and then activated the Parkplus parking session for 2:05PM. When i returned to my vehicle at 4:31PM I ended the Parkplus session and exited the Parkade. The sent me a ticket showing my Exit at 4:35 PM and a ticket for "Remaining in a space longer than Time purchased". Incredible.

So, I guess I should start and end the session while driving into and out of the parkade? OR pull over in the middle of downtown to do so?

There has to be someone at City Hall that looked at it and said "clearly he was driving to and from the parking stall.

7-14 Business days now to assess the appeal.

I guess they want you to drive faster through the parkade. I assume you now have not only their permission, but their demand you do so. Squeaksqueaksqueaksqueak.

It makes me wonder how hot the women in Galway are that both Ed Sheeran and Steve Earle wrote songs about them?
